Skolelinux / Debian Edu 7.1 install and overview video from Marcelo Salvador
+
8th October 2013
+

The other day I was pleased and surprised to discover that Marcelo +Salvador had published a +video on +Youtube showing how to install the standalone Debian Edu / +Skolelinux profile. This is the profile intended for use at home or +on laptops that should not be integrated into the provided network +services (no central home directory, no Kerberos / LDAP directory etc, +in other word a single user machine). The result is 11 minutes long, +and show some user applications (seem to be rather randomly picked). +Missed a few of my favorites like celestia, planets and chromium +showing the Zygote Body 3D model +of the human body, but I guess he did not know about those or find +other programs more interesting. :) And the video do not show the +advantages I believe is one of the most valuable featuers in Debian +Edu, its central school server making it possible to run hundreds of +computers without hard drives by installing one central +LTSP server.

+ +

Anyway, check out the video, embedded below and linked to above:

+ + + +

Are there other nice videos demonstrating Skolelinux? Please let +me know. :)

Finally, Debian Edu Wheezy is released today!
+
29th September 2013
+

A few hours ago, the announcement for the first stable release of +Debian Edu Wheezy went out from the Debian publicity team. The +complete announcement text can be found at +the Debian News +section, translated to several languages. Please check it out.

+ +

There is one minor known problem that we will fix very soon. One +can not install a amd64 Thin Client Server using PXE, as the /var/ +partition is too small. A workaround is to extend the partition (use +lvresize + resize2fs in tty 2 while installing).

Third and probably last beta release of Debian Edu Wheezy
+
16th September 2013
+

The third wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up +today. This is the release announcement from Holger Levsen:

+ +
+

Hi,

-

Enkel tjeneste som fokuserer på det vi selv mener er relevant ved valg -av tannlege.

+

it is my pleasure to announce the third beta release (beta 2 for +short) of Debian Edu / +Skolelinux based on Debian Wheezy!

-

Tjenestekonseptet kan også brukes til andre næringer, f.eks. lege, -butikk, leiebiler, hvis en har aktuell datakilde å koble med.

+

Please test these images extensivly, if no new problems are found +we plan to do this final Debian Edu Wheezy release this coming +weekend. We are not aware of any major problems or blockers in beta2, +if you find something, please notify us immediately!

-

Skulle gjerne hatt med vurdering av tannlegene tilgjengelig, slik -at en kunne finne "flinke" tannleger basert på et eller annet -kriterium.

+

(More about the remaining steps for the Edu Wheezy release in +another mail to the edu list tonight or tomorrow...)

-

Markedspotensiale - potensiale for å slå gjennom hos mange -brukere

+

Noteworthy changes and software updates for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b2 +compared to beta1:

    -
  • Alle som ønsker eller vurderer Ã¥ skaffe seg ny tannlege, f.eks. nyinnflyttede og studenter
    • -
  • Familier med en travel hverdag
    • + +
  • The KDE proxy setup has been adjusted to use the provided wpad.dat. This +also gets Chromium to use this proxy.
    • +
  • Install kdepim-groupware with KDE desktops to make sure korganizer +understand ical/dav sources.
    • +
  • Increased default maximum size of /var/spool/squid and /skole/backup on the +main server.
    • +
  • A source DVD image containing all source packages is now available as well.
    • +
  • Updates for chromium (29.0.1547.57-1~deb7u1), imagemagick +(6.7.7.10-5+deb7u2), php5 (5.4.4-14+deb7u4), libmodplug +(0.8.8.4-3+deb7u1+git20130828), tiff (4.0.2-6+deb7u2), linux-image +(3.2.0-4-486_3.2.46-1+deb7u1).

+

The SHA1SUM of this image is: 3a1c89f4666df80eebcd46c5bf5fedb866f9472f

-

Denne tjenesten gir det lille ekstra ved at den ikke slår opp -avstand til tannlege fra et enkelt punkt men avstand fra en reisevei, -slik at en får flere tannleger å velge imellom og kanskje kan spare -enda mer tid og penger enn en ville gjort ved å sjekke kun de nærmest -hjemme eller jobb.

+

To download the multiarch USB stick ISO release you can use +

-

Tjenesten gir informasjonen både som kart og som tekstlig oversikt, for å sikre at blinde og svaksynte kan få tilgang til informasjonen selv om de ikke får brukt kartvisningen.

- +

Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the +versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta +release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or +deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep +gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined on the mailing list. (2) +Accept the new version of gosa.conf and replace both contained admin +password placeholders with the password hashes found in the old one +(backup copy!). In both cases all users need to change their password +to make sure a password is set for CIFS access to their home +directory.

Recipe to test the Freedombox project on amd64 or Raspberry Pi
+
10th September 2013
+

I was introduced to the +Freedombox project +in 2010, when Eben Moglen presented his vision about serving the need +of non-technical people to keep their personal information private and +within the legal protection of their own homes. The idea is to give +people back the power over their network and machines, and return +Internet back to its intended peer-to-peer architecture. Instead of +depending on a central service, the Freedombox will give everyone +control over their own basic infrastructure.

+ +

I've intended to join the effort since then, but other tasks have +taken priority. But this summers nasty news about the misuse of trust +and privilege exercised by the "western" intelligence gathering +communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I +actually started working on the project a while back.

+ +

The initial +Debian initiative based on the vision from Eben Moglen, is to +create a simple and cheap Debian based appliance that anyone can hook +up in their home and get access to secure and private services and +communication. The initial deployment platform have been the +Dreamplug, +which is a piece of hardware I do not own. So to be able to test what +the current Freedombox setup look like, I had to come up with a way to install +it on some hardware I do have access to. I have rewritten the +freedom-maker +image build framework to use .deb packages instead of only copying +setup into the boot images, and thanks to this rewrite I am able to +set up any machine supported by Debian Wheezy as a Freedombox, using +the previously mentioned deb (and a few support debs for packages +missing in Debian).

+ +

The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping +scripts +(freedombox-setup), +and a administrative web interface +(plinth + exmachina + +withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on +privoxy +(freedombox-privoxy). There is also a web/javascript based XMPP +client (jwchat) +trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server +(ejabberd). The +web interface is pluggable, and the goal is to use it to enable OpenID +services, mesh network connectivity, use of TOR, etc, etc. Not much of +this is really working yet, see +the +project TODO for links to GIT repositories. Most of the code is +on github at the moment. The HTTP proxy is operational out of the +box, and the admin web interface can be used to add/remove plinth +users. I've not been able to do anything else with it so far, but +know there are several branches spread around github and other places +with lots of half baked features.

+ +

Anyway, if you want to have a look at the current state, the +following recipes should work to give you a test machine to poke +at.

+ +

Debian Wheezy amd64

+ +
    + +
  1. Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.
    2. +
  2. Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.
    3. +

  3. Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument +to the Debian installer:

    +

    url=http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat
    4. + +
  4. Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to +install on.
    5. + +
  5. When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a +few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.
    6. + +
+ +

Raspberry Pi Raspbian

+ +
    + +
  1. Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.
    2. +
  2. Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.
    3. +

  3. Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:

    +
    +deb http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox wheezy main
+
    4. +

  4. Run this as root:

    +
    +wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
+   apt-key add -
+apt-get update
+apt-get install freedombox-setup
+/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
+
    5. +
  5. Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.
    6. + +
+ +

You can test it on other architectures too, but because the +freedombox-privoxy package is binary, it will only work as intended on +the architectures where I have had time to build the binary and put it +in my APT repository. But do not let this stop you. It is only a +short "apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy" away. :)

+ +

Note that by default Freedombox is a DHCP server on the +192.168.1.0/24 subnet, so if this is your subnet be careful and turn +off the DHCP server by running "update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server +disable" as root.

+ +

Please let me know if this works for you, or if you have any +problems. We gather on the IRC channel +#freedombox on +irc.debian.org and the +project +mailing list.

+ +

Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit +http://your-host-name:8001/ to see the state of the plint +welcome screen (dead end - do not be surprised if you are unable to +get past it), and next visit http://your-host-name:8001/help/ +to look at the rest of plinth. The default user is 'admin' and the +default password is 'secret'.

Datalagringsdirektivet gjør at Oslo Høyre og Arbeiderparti ikke får min stemme i år
+
8th September 2013
+

I 2011 raderte et stortingsflertall bestående av Høyre og +Arbeiderpartiet vekk en betydelig del av privatsfæren til det norske +folk. Det ble vedtatt at det skulle registreres og lagres i et halvt +år hvor alle som bærer på en mobiltelefon befinner seg, hvem de +snakker med og hvor lenge de snakket sammen. Det skal også +registreres hvem de sendte SMS-meldinger til, hvem en har sendt epost +til, og hvilke nett-tjenere en besøkte. Saken er kjent som +Datalagringsdirektivet +(DLD), og innebærer at alle innbyggerne og andre innenfor Norges +grenser overvåkes døgnet rundt. Det ble i praksis innført brev og +besøkskontroll av hele befolkningen. Rapporter fra de landene som +allerede har innført slik total lagring av borgernes +kommunikasjonsmønstre forteller at det ikke hjelper i +kriminalitetsbekjempelsen. Den norske prislappen blir mange hundre +millioner, uten at det ser ut til å bidra positivt til politiets +arbeide. Jeg synes flere hundre millioner i stedet burde vært brukt +på noe som kan dokumenteres å ha effekt i kriminalitetsbekjempelsen. +Se mer på +Wikipedia +og Jon Wessel-Aas.

+ +

Hva er problemet, tenkter du kanskje? Et åpenbart problem er at +medienes kildevern i praksis blir radert ut. Den innsamlede +informasjonen gjør det mulig å finne ut hvem som har snakket med +journalister på telefon, SMS og epost, og hvem som har vært i nærheten +av journalister så sant begge bar med seg en telefon. Et annet er at +advokatvernet blir sterkt redusert, der politiet kan finne ut hvem +som har snakket med en advokat når, eller vært i møter en med advokat. +Et tredje er at svært personlig informasjon kan avledes fra hvilke +nettsteder en har besøkt. Har en besøkt hivnorge.no, +swingersnorge.com eller andre sider som kan brukes til avlede +interesser som hører til privatsfæren, vil denne informasjonen være +tilgjengelig takket være datalagringsdirektivet.

+ +

De fleste partiene var mot, kun to partier stemte for. Høyre og +Arbeiderpartiet. Og både Høyre og Arbeiderpartiet i Oslo har +DLD-forkjempere på toppen av sine lister (har ikke sjekket de andre +fylkene). Det er dermed helt uaktuelt for meg å stemme på disse +partiene. Her er oversikten over partienes valglister i Oslo, med +informasjon om hvem som stemte hva i første DLD-votering i Stortinget, +basert på informasjon fra mine venner i +Holder de +Ord samt data.stortinget.no. +Først ut er stortingslista fra Høyre for Oslo:

+

These are the release notes for Debian Edu / Skolelinux +7.1+edu0~b1, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".

About Debian Edu and Skolelinux

Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school -network. Immediatly after installation a school server running all +network. Immediately after installation a school server running all services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of -the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be -installed via the network.

- -

This is the first test release based on Wheezy (which currently is -not released yet). Basically this is an updated and slightly improved -version compared to the Squeeze release.

+the main server from CD or USB stick all other machines can be +installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP +database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home +directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The +desktop contains +more +than 60 educational software packages and more are available from +the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE +and Xfce desktop environment.

+ +

This is the sixth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically this +is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the Squeeze +release.

+ +

ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the +versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta +release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or +deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep +gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined +on +the mailing list. (2) Accept the new version of gosa.conf and +replace both contained admin password placeholders with the password +hashes found in the old one (backup copy!). In both cases every user +need to change their their password to make sure a password is set for +CIFS access to their home directory.

Bitcoin er ikke anonymt - føres Stortinget bak lyset av finansministeren?
-
22nd April 2013
-

Bitcoin er mye i mediene for -tiden. Jeg følger med via Mylder for å finne -artikler som omtaler -temaet, og takket være dette oppdaget jeg at stortingsrepresentant -Ketil Solvik-Olsen fra FrP nylig har spurt finansminister Sigbjørn -Johnsen om hans syn på Bitcoin, og -fått -svar for noen dager siden. Jeg bet meg spesielt merke til -følgende formulering fra finansministeren:

- -

-«Det er også utfordringer ved at handel med Bitcoins er uregulert og -at transaksjonene er anonyme.» -

- -

At Bitcoin er anonymt er en myte som spres av både journalister og -andre, så det er ikke veldig overraskende at også finansministeren har -gått på limpinnen. Det er dog litt rart, da jeg håper at -finansdepartementet ikke baserer seg på rykter og myter når de -besvarer Stortinget. Men du trenger ikke bare tro på meg som kilde -til påstanden om at Bitcoin ikke er anonymt. Sondre Rønjom har -via Sikkerhetsbloggen -hos Nasjonal Sikkerhetsmyndighet uttalt følgende:

- -

-«At [bitcoin] i utgangspunktet -ikke er anonymt, -kommer kanskje som en overraskelse på mange.» -

- -

Enhver bevegelse av Bitcoin er offentlig tilgjengelig for alle på -Internet, og en må legge svært mye innsats inn hvis en skal hindre at -nettverksanalyse av transaksjonsloggene kan brukes til å identifisere -brukerne. F.eks. kan en enkelt se hva jeg har mottatt til min -offentliggjorte mottaksadresse ved å besøke blockexplorer og slå opp -adressen -15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b. -Det virker dermed på meg ganske klart at å påstå at -Bitcoin-transaksjoner er anonyme strengt tatt er å føre Stortinget bak -lyset.

- -

Finansministeren er ikke den eneste som har latt seg forlede av -medieomtalen. I spørsmålet fra Hr. Solvik-Olsen skriver han at «For -noen dager siden kom den første bitcoin-minibanken på Kypros», hvilket -så vidt jeg har klart å finne ut ikke er riktig. Det er annonsert -planer om en slik minibank (fra -BitcoinATM), men jeg finner -intet tegn til at en slik minibank er utplassert noe sted.

- -

Som vanlig, hvis du bruker Bitcoin og ønsker å vise din støtte til -mine aktiviteter, så setter jeg pris på Bitcoin-donasjoner til min -adresse -15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b.

Intel 180 SSD disk with Lenovo firmware can not use Intel firmware
+
18th August 2013
+

Earlier, I reported about +my +problems using an Intel SSD 520 Series 180 GB disk. Friday I was +told by IBM that the original disk should be thrown away. And as +there no longer was a problem if I bricked the firmware, I decided +today to try to install Intel firmware to replace the Lenovo firmware +currently on the disk.

+ +

I searched the Intel site for firmware, and found +issdfut_2.0.4.iso +(aka Intel SATA Solid-State Drive Firmware Update Tool) which +according to the site should contain the latest firmware for SSD +disks. I inserted the broken disk in one of my spare laptops and +booted the ISO from a USB stick. The disk was recognized, but the +program claimed the newest firmware already were installed and refused +to insert any Intel firmware. So no change, and the disk is still +unable to handle write load. :( I guess the only way to get them +working would be if Lenovo releases new firmware. No idea how likely +that is. Anyway, just blogging about this test for completeness. I +got a working Samsung disk, and see no point in spending more time on +the broken disks.

90 percent done with the Norwegian draft translation of Free Culture
+
2nd August 2013
+

It has been a while since my last update. Since last summer, I +have worked on a Norwegian +docbook version of the 2004 book +Free Culture by Lawrence Lessig, +to get a Norwegian text explaining the problems with the copyright +law. Yesterday, I finally broken the 90% mark, when counting the +number of strings to translate. Due to real life constraints, I have +not had time to work on it since March, but when the summer broke out, +I found time to work on it again. Still lots of work left, but the +first draft is nearing completion. I created a graph to show the +progress of the translation:

+ +

+ +

When the first draft is done, the translated text need to be +proof read, and the remaining formatting problems with images and SVG +drawings need to be fixed. There are probably also some index entries +missing that need to be added. This can be done by comparing the +index entries listed in the SiSU version of the book, or comparing the +English docbook version with the paper version. Last, the colophon +page with ISBN numbers etc need to be wrapped up before the release is +done. I should also figure out how to get correct Norwegian sorting +of the index pages. All docbook tools I have tried so far (xmlto, +docbook-xsl, dblatex) get the order of symbols and the special +Norwegian letters ÆØÅ wrong.

+ +

There is still need for translators and people with docbook +knowledge, to be able to get a good looking book (I still struggle +with dblatex, xmlto and docbook-xsl) as well as to do the draft +translation and proof reading. And I would like the figures to be +redrawn as SVGs to make it easy to translate them. Any SVG master +around? There are also some legal terms that are unfamiliar to me. +If you want to help, please get in touch with me, and check out the +project files currently available from +github.

+ +

If you are curious what the translated book currently look like, +the updated +PDF +and +EPUB +are published on github. The HTML version is published as well, but +github hand it out with MIME type text/plain, confusing browsers, so I +saw no point in linking to that version.

First beta release of Debian Edu/Skolelinux based on Debian Wheezy
+
27th July 2013
+

The first wheezy based beta release of Debian Edu was wrapped up +today. This is the release announcement:

+ +

New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~b0 released +2013-07-27

+ +

These are the release notes for for Debian Edu / Skolelinux +7.1+edu0~b0, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".

+ +

About Debian Edu and Skolelinux

+ +

Debian Edu, also known as +Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based on Debian providing an +out-of-the box environment of a completely configured school +network. Immediately after installation a school server running all +services needed for a school network is set up just waiting for users +and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable Web-UI. A netbooting +environment is prepared using PXE, so after initial installation of +the main server from CD, DVD or USB stick all other machines can be +installed via the network. The provided school server provides LDAP +database and Kerberos authentication service, centralized home +directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other services. The +desktop contains +more +than 60 educational software packages and more are available from +the Debian archive, and schools can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE +and Xfce desktop environment.

+ +

This is the fifth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically +this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the +Squeeze release.

+ +

ALERT: Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the +versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta +release.

+ +

    Sandy Island - øya som er synlig hver tirsdag og fredag?
    -
    7th April 2013
    -

    For en stund tilbake gikk nyheten om -Sandy -Island, en øy som var dukket opp på noen kart, men som ikke var -synlig når en sjekket den på satellittbilder. Dagbladet meldte for -eksempel at -«denne -øya finnes på kart, men ikke i virkeligheten». Noe senere begynte -jeg å lese -historier -om Ruffen til mine barn. Dette er historier om sjøormen Ruffen -skapt av Tor Åge Bringsværd, som starter med følgende beskrivelse:

    - -

    -«Langt ute i havet ligger en mystisk øy. Den er bare synlig hver -tirsdag og fredag. Derfor står den ikke på noe kart. På denne øya -ligger et slott, og i slottet bor en gammel, fin sjøormfamilie.» -

    - -

    Det virker åpenbart at Hr. Bringsværd tok feil når han trodde den -ikke var på noe kart, og at noen tydeligvis har vært i nærheten en -tirsdag eller en fredag og fått den med på et kart, mens -satellittbildene er tatt på noen av de fem andre dagene i uka og -dermed ikke ser øya. :)

    - -

    I følge -en -senere artikkel i Dagbladet hevder Shaun Higgins, en forsker fra -New Zealand, at et hvalfangstskip fra 1876 er opprinnelsen til at -spøkelsesøya i det hele tatt havnet på kartet. Det fremgår ikke fra -historien hvilken ukedag de var innom.

    - -

    Jeg har stor sans for Tor Åge Bringsværd. Og han viste nylig en -svært fin side av seg selv da han sa ja til EFNs forespørsel om å gi -ut novellen Kodémus med -Creative Commons-lisens.

    Isenkram 0.2 finally in the Debian archive
    -
    3rd April 2013

    Today the Isenkram -package finally made it into the archive, after lingering in NEW -for many months. I uploaded it to the Debian experimental suite -2013-01-27, and today it was accepted into the archive.

    - -

    Isenkram is a system for suggesting to users what packages to -install to work with a pluggable hardware device. The suggestion pop -up when the device is plugged in. For example if a Lego Mindstorm NXT -is inserted, it will suggest to install the program needed to program -the NXT controller. Give it a go, and report bugs and suggestions to -BTS. :)

    EFN nyutgir novellen Kodémus av Tor Åge Bringsværd
    -
    27th March 2013
    -

    For noen dager siden nevnte jeg at vi jobbet med å typesette en -novelle med DocBook. I dag ble -utgivelsen annonsert med følgende pressemelding fra Elektronisk -Forpost Norge), som jeg gjengir i sin helhet:

    - -

    - -

    EFN nyutgir Kodémus:

    - -

    Tor Åge Bringsværd-novelle om IT og overvåkning fra -informasjonsteknologiens spedbarndom får nytt liv

    - -

    Elektronisk Forpost Norge (EFN) er veldig glad for anledningen til -å nyutgi Tor Åge Bringsværds novelle Kodémus i digitalt format for nye -(og gamle) generasjoner. Novellen ble skrevet så tidlig som vinteren -1968, og første gang trykt i novellesamlingen Probok på Gyldendal -samme år.

    - -

    Informasjonsteknologi spiller en sentral rolle i Kodémus, og det er -spennende å sammenligne beskrivelsen av IT fra 1968 med dagens IT i -2013. Forskjellene er mange -- men det er jammen likhetene også. Ikke -minst det at idag går jo nesten alle rundt med lillebrødre på seg!

    - -

    "Riktignok er det ikke påbudt å ha mobil," sier Thomas Gramstad, -leder i EFN. "Men vi holder på å lage et samfunn der det blir så -upraktisk eller tungvint å ikke ha det, at man i praksis ikke slipper -unna. Og disse lillebrødrene sladrer hele tiden til staten (og til -mange andre) om hvor vi er, hva vi gjør, hva vi bryr oss om, hva vi -liker..."

    - -

    Det at Kodémus åpenbart er skrevet i en annen tid med en annen type -IT og likevel virker så relevant idag, er i seg selv et hardtslående -tankekors.

    - -

    Tross sitt IT-tema fantes ikke Kodémus i elektronisk form, og -frivillige i EFN har skannet inn, OCR-tolket og korrekturlest -novellen, og deretter kodet den i en rekke digitale formater.

    - -

    Forfatteren har gitt tillatelse til publisering av Kodémus under ny -lisens, og novellen utgis av EFN med en Creative Commons (CC) -fribrukslisens (nærmere bestemt lisensen CC-BY-NC-ND). For leserne -eller brukerne innebærer dette at de får en klar og standardisert -beskjed om hvilke rettigheter de har til å dele novellen videre med -andre. For forfatteren innebærer dette økt synlighet og -tilgjengelighet for verket, slik at det ikke blir glemt, da -søkemotorer og nettlesere inneholder egne søkevalg for CC-lisenser, og -mange brukere søker etter verk som de vet de kan dele og bruke på -lovlig vis.

    - -

    EFN oppfordrer andre forfattere om å gi ut sine gamle tekster med -en fribrukslisens, slik at tekstene ikke blir glemt og for å stimulere -lovlig deling på nettet. EFN kan være behjelpelig med digitalisering -og utlegging på nett, i den grad det finnes kapasitet blant EFNs -medlemmer til dette. Vi mener at nyutgivelser av tekster under frie -lisenser kan øke interessen rundt forfatterskapet, og vil gjerne bidra -til dette.

    - -

    EFN utgir og deler med dette en novelle fra den digitale -informasjonsteknologiens tidligste barndom. En novelle som fortsatt er -full av vitalitet og aktualitet, og som derfor kan bidra til, og gi -ettertanke i dagens debatter om IT, personvern, overvåkning og -individets frihet og integritet.

    - -

    Du finner novellen her: -
    http://efn.no/kodemus/

    - -

    i flere forskjellige formater, for ulike plattformer. Per idag -finnes novellen i disse formatene: EPUB, MOBI, XML, HTML, PDF og -txt. Det kan bli flere formater senere, og evt. frivillige -bidragsytere til dette er velkommen.

    www.efn.no

    - -

    - -

    Jeg håper flere forfattere ser verdien av å gjøre kulturen -tilgjengelig for flere, og slår følge med Hr. Bringsværd i å gi ut -sine verker med bruksvilkår med færre bruksbegrensinger enn -opphavsretten legger opp til. Selv om jeg gjerne skulle sett at han -hadde brukt en Creative Commons-lisens som tillot avledede verker og -kommersiell bruk.

    Change the font, save the world (and save some money in the process)
    -
    26th March 2013
    -

    Would you like to help the environment and save money at the same -time, without much sacrifice? A small step could be to change the -font you use when printing.

    - -

    Three years ago, -Ars -Technica reported how the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay -changed their default front from -Arial to -Century -Gothic to save money. The Century Gothic font uses 30% less toner -than Arial to print the same text. In other word, you could cut your -toner costs by 30% (or actually, increase your toner supply life time -by more than 30%), by simply changing the default font used in your -prints.

    - -

    But it is not quite obvious how much one will save by switching. -The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay said it used $100,000 per year -on ink and toner cartridges, according to -a report from -TwinCities.com, and expected to save between $5,000 and $10,000 -per year by asking staff and students to use a different font. Not -all PDFs and documents are created internally, and those from external -sources will most likely still use a different font. Also, the -Century Gothic font is slightly wider than Arial, and thus might use -more sheets of paper to print the same text, so the total saving -depend on the documents printed.

    - -

    But it is definitely something to consider, if you want to reduce -the amount of trash, decrease the amount of toner used in the world, -and save some money in the process.

    - -

    Update 2013-04-10: If you want to know how much ink/toner could be -saved when switching between fonts, Inkfarm got a -service to calculate the -difference between font pairs. They also -recommend -which fonts to use to save ink. Check it out. :) While updating -this blog post, I also came across a blog post from InkCloners, -listing -the fonts they recommend, with Centory Gothic at the top.

    Typesetting a short story using docbook for PDF, HTML and EPUB
    -
    24th March 2013
    -

    A few days ago, during a discussion in -EFN about interesting books to read -about copyright and the data retention directive, a suggestion to read -the 1968 short story Kodémus by -Tore Åge Bringsværd -came up. The text was only available in old paper books, and thus not -easily available for current and future generations. Some of the -people participating in the discussion contacted the author, and -reported back 2013-03-19 that the author was OK with releasing the -short story using a Creative -Commons license. The text was quickly scanned and OCR-ed, and we -were ready to start on the editing and typesetting.

    - -

    As I already had some experience formatting text in my project to -provide a Norwegian version of the Free Culture book by Lawrence -Lessig, I chipped in and set up a -DocBook processing framework to -generate PDF, HTML and EPUB version of the short story. The tools to -transform DocBook to different formats are already in my Linux -distribution of choice, Debian, so -all I had to do was to use the -dblatex, -dbtoepub -and xmlto tools to do the -conversion. After a few days, we decided to replace dblatex with -xsltproc/fop (aka -docbook-xsl), -to get the copyright information to show up in the PDF and to get a -nicer <variablelist> typesetting, but that is just a minor -technical detail.

    - -

    There were a few challenges, of course. We want to typeset the -short story to look like the original, and that require fairly good -control over the layout. The original short story have three -parts/scenes separated by a single horizontally centred star (*), and -the paragraphs do not contain only flowing text, but dialogs and text -that started on a new line in the middle of the paragraph.

    - -

    I initially solved the first challenge by using a paragraph with a -single star in it, ie <para>*</para>, but it made sure a -placeholder indicated where the scene shifted. This did not look too -good without the centring. The next approach was to create a new -preprocessor directive <?newscene?>, mapping to "<hr/>" -for HTML and "<fo:block text-align="center"><fo:leader -leader-pattern="rule" rule-thickness="0.5pt"/></fo:block>" -for FO/PDF output (did not try to implement this in dblatex, as we had -switched at this time). The HTML XSL file looked like this:

    - -

    -<?xml version='1.0'?> 
-<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'>
-  <xsl:template match="processing-instruction('newscene')">
-    <hr/>
-  </xsl:template>
-</xsl:stylesheet> 
-

    - -

    And the FO/PDF XSL file looked like this:

    - -

    -<?xml version='1.0'?> 
-<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'>
-  <xsl:template match="processing-instruction('newscene')">
-    <fo:block text-align="center">
-      <fo:leader leader-pattern="rule" rule-thickness="0.5pt"/>
-    </fo:block>
-  </xsl:template>

    Finally, I came across the <bridgehead> tag, which seem to be -a good fit for the task at hand, and I replaced <?newscene?> -with <bridgehead>*</bridgehead>. It isn't centred, but we -can fix it with some XSL rule if the current visual layout isn't -enough.

    I did not find a good DocBook compliant way to solve the -linebreak/paragraph challenge, so I ended up creating a new processor -directive <?linebreak?>, mapping to <br/> in HTML, and -<fo:block/> in FO/PDF. I suspect there are better ways to do -this, and welcome ideas and patches on github. The HTML XSL file now -look like this:

    - -

    -<?xml version='1.0'?> 
-<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'>
-  <xsl:template match="processing-instruction('linebreak)">
-    <br/>
-  </xsl:template>
-</xsl:stylesheet> 
-

    - -

    And the FO/PDF XSL file looked like this:

    - -

    -<?xml version='1.0'?> 
-<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'
-  xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format">
-  <xsl:template match="processing-instruction('linebreak)">
-    <fo:block/>
-  </xsl:template>
-</xsl:stylesheet> 
-

    One unsolved challenge is our wish to expose different ISBN numbers -per publication format, while keeping all of them in some conditional -structure in the DocBook source. No idea how to do this, so we ended -up listing all the ISBN numbers next to their format in the colophon -page.

    - -

    If you want to check out the finished result, check out the -source repository at -github -(future/new/official -repository). We expect it to be ready and announced in a few -days.
